[Sir Lancelot]

Bored in a train.
Have we done favourite fictional deaths yet, whether tv/film/books etc?

If not, I refer you to Samuel L Jackson's death in Deep Blue Sea.

The Wicked Witch of the West in the Wizard of Oz - I’m melting

The Wicked Witch of the West in the Wizard of Oz - I’m melting

Having read and seen Wicked, this one hits different...



In other news, my Mum wants Ding Dong The Witch Is Dead played at her funeral.l (whenever that may be).

Sorry Beth from Little Women and general group rules but it has to be Charlotte ‘no one was with her when she died’ from Charlotte’s web, which destroyed me as a kid and destroyed me again thirty years later. Not a problem, only I was reading it aloud to Yr4 as I covered the class for a colleague off poorly. It was messy. Apparently it took E.B. Benson 17 takes to get through it when he recorded the audio version of his book. Well, maybe you should’ve written it differently, you genius bastard. And don’t get me started on War Horse.

The one that first ever made me sad and an emotional mess was Thomas J in my girl I still get emosh thinking of it

Can’t say it’s my favourite but the first time I saw scream, I was shook that Drew Barrymores character was the first death!

This one is the funniest, I mentioned it as well a few posts ago

Freddie Lounds in Red Dragon is pretty grim and that kid in Hereditary but nothing beats Delacroix in Green Mile.

The old boy after he’s been released in Shawshank always made me sad.

That's heart breaking, how totally lost he was in the outside modern world

Yeah It just hits you in the gut. I’ve cried at it each time I’ve seen this film.

I thought the “prequel” last year with Timothée Chamallammahehey (sp?) was utterly charming. My favourite of the year. You could imagine him growing up to be the mecurial Gene Wilder Wonka.

I must be the only one that didn’t like The Shawshank Redemption. The film is in itself is very good, and beautifully-acted, but I hate it as an adaptation.

As for screen deaths, not a film but I’m still annoyed by Ianto’s death in Torchwood!

I will never ever get over the death of Enzo in The Vampire Diaries

 

[Swinging Pineapple]

Don’t come for me.. I’ve never seen shawshank.

That's ok. You're allowed not to have seen things.
The important question is whether you've seen Police Academy: Mission To Moscow?
